Download or read book Diversity and Leadership written by Jean Lau Chin and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2014-09-02 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although leadership theories have evolved to reflect changing social contexts, many remain silent on issues of equity, diversity, and social justice. Diversity and Leadership, by Jean Lau Chin and Joseph E. Trimble, offers a new paradigm for examining leadership by bringing together two domains—research on leadership and research on diversity—to challenge existing notions of leadership and move toward a diverse and global view of society and its institutions. This compelling book delivers an approach to leadership that is inclusive, promotes access for diverse leaders, and addresses barriers that narrowly confine our perceptions and expectations of leaders. Redefining leadership as global and diverse, the authors impart new understanding of who our leaders are, the process of communication, exchange between leaders and their members, criteria for selecting, training, and evaluating leaders in the 21st century, and the organizational and societal contexts in which leadership is exercised.

Download or read book Diversity Awareness Perceptions Among Classified Staff at a Midwestern Land Grant University written by Cheryl Denise-Roshell Grice and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diversity is recognized by acknowledging individual differences. The term diversity can refer to an array of descriptors such as, race, religion, color, gender, national origin, disabilities, sexual orientation, age, level of education, geographic origin, economic status, family status, appearance/physical size and skill characteristics. Although there are multiple definitions of diversity, many include at least one or all of the attributes listed above. This qualitative study examined perceptions of classified employees regarding the level of diversity awareness among their workforce at a large Midwestern land grant university. The sample was purposefully selected from the population of classified support staff using both scores from Dahm's (2006) Organizational Diversity Needs Analysis (ODNA) and responses to demographic questions. This survey was designed to measure diversity awareness in the workplace using the dimensions; cultural inclusion or exclusion, organizational inclusion or exclusion, workload, trust, sensitivity and affirmative action. Demographic information used to select the sample for this study included; age (Generation Y, Generation X and Baby Boomers), gender (male and female), and race and ethnicity (White and all others, for example: African American, Asian American, Hispanic and Native American). Semi-formal, one-on-one interviews were conducted with the participants by the researcher in this study. Additionally a theme emerged that expressed the "good old boy" system as being "alive and well"; differential treatment among staff who did not have the same or similar levels of education; positional power and situational occurrences whereby individuals who appeared different were treated unfairly or without respect by other staff, faculty or students at the university. Findings included a difference in perceptions about diversity awareness between Whites and non Whites. Whites fell into the following categories; 1) Many employees felt the current status of diversity awareness was sufficient, 2) an equal number of others felt that their needed to be an increase in diversity awareness initiatives among employees, 3) others felt as though diversity awareness was problematic or 4) the need did not exist for diversity awareness initiatives. Non White participants disagreed, all claimed to have been the victim of discriminatory behavior.
